Wells and a page or two from the prophecies of Jules Verne, add a dash of adventure from the latest best-seller picked at random from the bokstalls, weave in it a powerful romance with a beautiful girl and a handsome young man. as the principal characters, set it in a city so bizarre and so wonderful that it almost takes the breath away, and you have a faint conception of what “Metropolis,” the wonder picture from Ufa, coming to the New Grand Theatre next month. Costing over a million pounds to make, and occupying two years in its production, this picture has been hailed by the critics of two continents as the most marvellous yet seen upon the screen.
